What are two methods that a hard drive uses to transfer data between itself and memory?
dma - direct memory access. (cpu not involved and can process other tasks) pio - programmed input output. (cpu controlled process which blocks other tasks from running.)
What is a numeric page?
The transfer of pages of data between a computer's main memory and an auxiliary memory.
What do you mean direct memory acess?
direct data transfer between input and output device on the memory is called as direct memory acess
Block diagram of 8257 dma controller?
it is a device to transfer the data directly between io device and memory without through the cpu so it performs a high-speed data transfer between memory and io device
Why Direct memory access has priority over the CPU when both request a memory transfer?
we can transfer data direct to and from memory without the need of the CPU. The transfer of data between a fast storage device such as magnetic disk and memory is often limited by the speed of the CPU. Removing the CPU from the path and letting the peripheral device manager the memory buses directly would improve the speed of transfer. This transfer technique is called direct memory access(DMA). During DMA transfer, the CPU is idle and has no control of the memory buses. A DMA controller takes over the buses to manage the transfer directly between the I/O device and memory. With Regards.

What are the advantages to switching to DDR3 memory?
DDR3 memory has a high bandwidth interface and can transfer data at between two and eight the speed of other memory and has the capacity of up to eight megabytes.
How do you transfer memory stick data to gmail?

Are there memory cards available for the xbox 360 besides the internal memory?
Yes, there are several different memory cards available for purchase for the Xbox 360. In this way you can transfer savegames and other information between systems.
Do Emotional state rehearsal association and automatic memory all affect the transfer of information from short term memory to long term memory?
Yes, emotional state can influence memory transfer as heightened emotions can enhance encoding and retrieval processes. Rehearsal helps reinforce information in short-term memory, aiding in its transfer to long-term memory. Automatic memory processes can also impact memory transfer by improving the efficiency of encoding and retrieval.
Is memory allocated for instance methods for each instance method call?
No! Instance methods are allocated memory at first time only.
Where does the word souvenir come from?
